Reading Comprehension in ninth graders through reading strategies using authentic material on Facebook.

Abstract

This study started since the analysis done to a group of ninth graders when performing a reading activity in their English class. What this research attempted to do was to improve their reading comprehension levels when reading in the foreign language, therefore some different dynamics had to be employed in order to offer students the opportunity to read in other ways which allow them to have more interest towards the reading activity and in the same way achieve better results when developing those kind of tasks.
